"Why is Tianyong hosting?"

⊙▃⊙

Conan was confused.

Host Tianyong is obviously the murderer, so why is he lying on the raft now, as peaceful as a dead person?

Pfft!

The sound of someone falling into the water brought Conan back to his senses and he turned around to look.

I saw a figure in a raincoat diving down from the place where the sound came from.

What is this guy doing? Who is he?

The water was rippling and the light was dim, so Conan couldn't see who the other person was, but he looked like one of the four disciples of Master Tianyong.

Although the face was not seen, the bald head was still very obvious.

"Conan, kids can't do this, it's too dangerous!" Xia Chuan half of his body stuck into the narrow skylight and lifted Conan up with one hand. Conan's posture was too dangerous, and if he moved a little further forward, he would fall in.

However, his main purpose in sticking his head in was to see the expression on Monk Xiunian's face.

It is a rare scene in the world of science that a murderer is caught red-handed. I don’t know what Xiunian feels about it.

Is it surprise, helplessness, or uncontrollable anger?

Chapter 131: The Wolf in Sheep's Clothing

But he was obviously disappointed. Xiunian had already dived into deep water at this time. Looking from above, his whole body was distorted by the deep water, and his expression looked a little unrealistic.

"Father, Anya wants to see it too."

As he was speaking, Xia Chuan felt something pushing in from the right, and then Anya's head also came in.

The skylight was not big to begin with, and the three of them had half of their upper bodies squeezed in it, getting stuck.

"..."

Xia Chuan sighed silently, and exerted force with his arms to stuff Conan into the skylight. With one less person, the skylight was much more spacious.

Conan: ...

It's true that I wanted to see the situation, but there's no need to keep me hanging in the practice room like this.

If there wasn't water below, Conan would have been scared to death. This place is nearly ten meters above the ground!

"Conan, did you see what Xiu Nian was doing?"

"Xiunian?"

Conan took a closer look.

The water waves have eased a lot because the water has stopped being poured in, but because there is no light, nothing can be seen. If it weren't for the bald head reflecting light, I wouldn't have been able to confirm that the person below was one of the four disciples of Abbot Tianyong.

Although Conan was wondering how Natsukawa confirmed the identity of the murderer, he knew that now was not the time to ask this.

He quickly turned on the searchlight on his watch, wanting to see what Monk Xiunian was going to do.

However, the illumination intensity of the watch searchlight is insufficient and it cannot penetrate further after penetrating one or two meters into the water.

"Uncle Xia Chuan, let go, I'll go down and take a look!"

Conan made up his mind, kicked his legs, and tried to break free from Natsukawa and go into the water.

Xia Chuan didn't answer, but he naturally wouldn't let go. It was not safe in the water, even though Conan had learned to swim in Hawaii. But there was a murderer down there, and who knew if Monk Xiunian would go crazy and kill Conan.

Leg-strengthening shoes and watch-shaped anesthetic needles are unusable in water. The six-year-old Conan is definitely no match for the eighteen-year-old Xiunian.

Seeing that Natsukawa would not let go, Conan twisted his butt and struggled again, but because the quality of the clothes was too good and Natsukawa's arms were so strong, he was unable to twist away.

"Damn it!" Conan was a little annoyed. If he had known, he would have jumped down directly. Now looking at Xiachuan's expression, it was obvious that he would not let go.

"Master Xiu Nian, stop struggling and give up resistance. We already know it's you!" Sound cannot be transmitted in water, and Conan's voice was undoubtedly lost.

Soon, there was a muffled sound, and the sound of splashing water suddenly broke out!

Conan's expression changed greatly.

Soon, a vortex formed on the water surface and the water level seemed to drop!

This Xiunian should have knocked down the newly renovated small door at the back of the practice room from the inside.

but!

The water pressure is so great that people will be washed out together!

As soon as Conan thought of this, he heard a scream.

The screams gradually became smaller.

Then, the kayak that Abbot Tianyong was in began to spiral, and within a few seconds it sank into the water with a "splash".

"Come out first." Xiachuan held Conan in one hand and Anya in the other, and carried the two out one by one.

Then, Conan saw the sound of water splashing from the outer wall of the first floor of the training room, and a red kayak along with the body of Abbot Tenyong was washed away by the water.

Xiu Nian's screams attracted the attention of the eldest brother Kuan Nian, "What happened?"

Deep in the corridor, Kuan Nian ran quickly to the door of the meditation room on the first floor and just happened to see the waterline on the side wall of the meditation room. Then, he saw Abbot Tianyong and the kayak being washed out.

"This is......"

Kuannian had a dazed look on his face. He glanced at Koizumi Hongzi and Xiaolan, then glanced at the practice room which was still soaked with water. He raised his arm slightly, pointed in the direction where Abbot Tianyong fell, and was choked with words, not knowing what to say.

This heir to the Red Magic is so scary.

The abbot didn't want her to take Mist Tengu's mask, but she actually killed him?

Kuan Nian's legs were trembling. He took a step back and fell to the ground, hitting the stairs.

"You, you...you."

Koizumi Hongzi sneered and crossed her arms across her chest. Even though she knew what Kuannian was thinking, she had no intention of explaining.

The witch would never bother with such a person.

"Are you okay, Master Kuan Nian?" Xiao Lan stepped forward to help the man up, and explained helplessly: "This matter has nothing to do with us. We just came here after using the toilet and found some noise."

Kuan Nian didn't hear a word he said. Seeing is believing, hearing is false. He had seen it all, so what was there to explain?

"Let's wait until the police arrive to determine the right and wrong. I've already contacted a police captain I know, and they'll be here soon." After saying that, Xiaolan raised the cell phone left by Xia Chuan in her hand, signaling to the other party not to worry, as she had already called the police.

Kuannian took a deep breath, feeling very nervous.

A police inspector I know! The word "know" is very important. Is this customer implying that the police inspector I called in to investigate the case is also one of theirs?

Kuan Nian was overwhelmed with emotions, thinking of many shady py transactions, and suddenly felt very uneasy.

He shouldn't be here, he should be sleeping in his room. He shouldn't have come out.

When the police come, you should cooperate with them, otherwise you might become the murderer.

There are so many of them that they can provide each other with alibis even if someone kills someone, but he doesn't have that!

At this moment, he was extremely eager for the other three fellow apprentices to show up quickly, as these guests were simply wolves in sheep's clothing.

The abbot only wanted to fleece the guests, while these guests wanted to eat the mutton.

"Xiaolan, what happened?"

At this time, Kogoro Mouri came over sleepily, and took a look at the training room which was still flooded with water, looking a little confused.

Why is there water in the meditation room? Am I still drunk? Am I hallucinating because I have to pee urgently? Why don’t I go back and take a nap...

After thinking about it, Kogoro Mouri changed direction and wanted to go back to sleep.

This scene stunned Kuan Nian.

You killed someone! Why are you so nonchalant? Do you guys take human life seriously?

In an instant, he swallowed his saliva, holding back his panic and revealing a confused expression.

"I was sleepwalking too. I didn't see anything. I'm going to go back to bed right now and make sure I sleep until early tomorrow morning. I won't remember anything that happened tonight because I was sleepwalking."

"..."

This explanation was a bit far-fetched, but it was enough to prove his inner panic.

Xiaolan was too lazy to explain to the other party at this time. Seeing that her backbone had arrived, she hurried forward and grabbed Maori Kogoro's hand: "Dad, Master Xiu Nian and Abbot Tianyong just fell off the cliff."

"what!"

Kogoro Maori suddenly became energetic!

He closed his eyes and opened them again, regaining clarity in an instant. He waved his hand and said, "Call the police! Sanni Temple is still within Tokyo, and is under the jurisdiction of Officer Megure. Forget it, where's the phone number? I'll call directly!"

Kogoro Maori looked back at Kuannian, but found that there was no one where Kuannian had just been.

"When he heard Xiu Nian also fell, he ran away." Koizumi Hongzi yawned and was ready to leave with little interest: "I'm a little sleepy too, so I'll go back to sleep first."

The witch had no interest in this kind of thing. The reason she came out was just to see what Xiachuan and the others were going to do. She would feel relieved when she was sure that her attempt to get the Mist Tengu mask back would not be affected.

After Natsukawa went downstairs, he met Koizumi Akako who was about to go back to bed. He felt envious. He also wanted to go back to bed, but Anya was very energetic now. If he went to bed, Anya might follow Conan to do something dangerous.

Just sticking your head in the skylight is dangerous.

"By the way, the person Xiaolan saw at the door before should be you, right?" Xia Chuan suddenly remembered that Xiaolan said she saw a figure at the door of Shanni Temple, and that person might be Koizumi Hongzi.

Koizumi Hongzi nodded, then seemed to have thought of something, and her facial expression suddenly became a little unnatural.

"What's wrong?" Xia Chuan asked.

"fine."

After saying that, she left quickly.

Xiachuan wanted to ask what the noise was that he had heard outside the Sanni Temple before, but Koizumi Hongzi ran too fast and didn't give him a chance to ask questions.

But this is not a big deal, Xia Chuan shrugged and gave up asking.

Chapter 132 This is the consequence of not having read books

Behind Natsukawa, Conan strode down the stairs.

"Uncle Maori, let's go to the bottom of the cliff to check the situation!" Conan saw Maori Kogoro after he went downstairs and immediately shouted.

"I see!"

Kogoro Mori nodded solemnly.

He had just checked and found a stream below the cliff. If Xiunian and Tianyong were lucky enough to fall into the stream, they might still survive.

Conan was still very pleased. Although Uncle Maori was unreliable most of the time, he was never vague when it came to such murder cases.

After the two left, Xia Chuan thought for a moment and said to Xiao Lan, "Xiao Lan, contact the hospital. If you fall from such a high place, even if you are fine, you will be seriously disabled. It is safer to call an ambulance."

"understood."

Ten minutes later.

At the edge of the grass below Sanni Temple, Natsukawa held a candlestick to light up Kogoro Mori.

The grass was growing very well because of plenty of water, and its height was almost as tall as Conan. However, it was a little difficult to find Tianyong and Xiunian who had fallen down.

Kogoro Maori groped around with his butt sticking out, and it took him more than ten minutes to find the kayak.

"Really? What on earth happened? Why did Abbot Tianyong and Xiunian fall down?"

Kogoro Mori was still confused.

Xia Chuan explained while lighting the scene, laying out Conan's reasoning in its entirety and adding some details of his own.

"So, Abbot Tianyong was the murderer who killed Zhongnian two years ago?"

Xia Chuan shook his head and nodded: "It shouldn't be wrong. Conan's reasoning is all learned from you, Uncle Maori. The case is reasonable and the logic is self-consistent. I think the reasoning should not be wrong."

Maori Kogoro mainly grasped the word "learn from oneself", laughed and touched the back of his head a little embarrassedly: "After following me for so long, it's normal for him to learn some of my true skills. It's no wonder that I always bring him with me to solve cases. Finally, he can be of some use. It seems that Conan is still a promising talent!"

"..."

Xia Chuan remained silent, with the corners of his mouth twitching slightly.

There is a reason why Conan chose Uncle Maori as the object of anesthesia. His self-confidence and narcissism are unparalleled.
